Why do countries fly near each other's airspace.
We have seen multiple intercepts over the past 2 decades of planes intercepting bombers, recon aircraft, or even fighters. Usually, America and Russia. Su-35's and Tu-95s has been intercepted near Alaska. B-52s has been intercepted near the black sea. A Su-35 intercepted a P-8 Poseidon. There may be others I'm not aware of but, What's the point of flying near others airspace? Any fears of starting a war?
